We know planning a field trip takes time and effort and want to make the process as easy as possible. We are using a new platform and expect it will help us streamline the reservation process. We are opening registration for school year 24/25 program on Tuesday, 9/3 at 7:00 a.m. We will not consider requests that arrive before 7 a.m.
Once you select a program, please fill out our Booking Form and Registration Form. For assistance in determining the most appropriate field trip, call (786)335-3690 or send an e-mail. Programs may be combined and adjusted to fit your needs and time restraints.
Most day programs take place on the Dante Fascell Visitor Center grounds at Convoy Point in Homestead. The facility includes a boardwalk for wildlife viewing, picnic tables, and bathroom facilities. The visitor center has a classroom, auditorium to watch park films, a museum, touch tables and rotating art exhibits.
When planning field trips please remember to check the weather and prepare students appropriately. Snacks and drinks are available at the park gift shop, but limited. It is recommended that school groups bring their own lunch and refillable water bottles.
